The Queen's Institute of Community Nursing (QICN) is a charity that works to improve the nursing care of people in their own homes in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. It does not operate in Scotland, where the Queen's Nursing Institute Scotland performs a similar function. The QICN is also affiliated to the Queen's Institute of District Nursing in Ireland. The QICN is a member of the International Council of Nurses. In March 2025, The Queen’s Nursing Institute (QNI) was re-named as The Queen’s Institute of Community Nursing (QICN).
